/ A country blessed with fertile, arable lands but nobody wants to farm. Wait until one oyibo company taps into the opportunity for mechanized farming and people will start complaining.
/ To think that he was in ECOWAS meeting in Abuja to arm-twist Niger military to reinstate Bazoum not knowing that karma is waiting on the side
Let African Presidents keep deceiving themselves. The people are waking up from slumber gradually. Social media have opened people's lives about good life in other countries and the deprivations in their lives.
/ Even with all the nonsense, some dimwitted miseducated imps will say the worst democracy is better than the best military rule. They are the vuvuzuela of bad governance in Africa. Because it is nicknamed democracy doesn't mean it is democracy.
beekind: I am in my mid 30s, very comfortable and a dual citizen of Nigeria and a first world country. I decided to relocate back to Nigeria because of starting a family and having my own children. Since arriving the country and based on my experiences so far, my plans have changed.
I decided to first focus on having children as I found out that the Nigerian society has become almost worse than the west in terms of sexual debauchery. People have sex for indomine, girls commit abortion without remorse, the worst thing is that no one here uses protection and by the time your average Nigerian girl reaches 30 years old, she has aborted 4 times, slept with almost 100 men and contacted several stds in the process.
What this means is that disciplined men like me are left with these category of girls, worst still is that they come very entitled and empty and can even ruin you with their lifestyle as they are usually impossible to reform.
Solution: I had to go back to the drawing board and re-evaluated my plan, I have an ex-girlfriend (29 years old) whom I am very close with. She fits the bill in terms of who I want as a life partner but she is a single mother. So I gave her a choice.
Have 2 children for me, those 2 children will automatically become dual citizens and I might consider marrying you and adopting your child but even if I don't marry you, your 2 children that you have by me will be taken care of and being dual citizens of a developed country they can turn to a blessing for you and your whole family in future.
Now, let me explain, I still love this lady and my decision was premised on how uncertain I am of what my choice will be in the future as such I wanted to be very open from the beginning, but even at this point, I can not guarantee I will marry her but I could depending on what happens in future.
She's going to give me a feedback later and I am quite positive she will take the offer.
If it were you faced with this option, what would you do ?
/ Difficult deal but I understand your plight.
Finding a good wife in the current day Nigeria is the most difficult thing any reasonable man would do.
Just close your eyes, pick one and do all the necessary lab tests. Then be ready to live with the consequences. Infact on your wedding day, I will make sure to send my condolences. /
/ This is a diss on African leaders if they have sense. So US President is a demigod that requires special privilege to meet. Imagine the insolence! Year in year out different Presidents summon African presidents as a group like errand boys, bus then in and hand them the blueprint on how to destroy their countries to the benefits of whites and Asians.
Now imagine that some people are jubilating that Biden decides to meet Tinubu. /
Chetas81: The enemies that wrote the Bible should come and explain, this book was present to you by the British colony, how many British indigenous people poor like African citizen especially black African
/ The British started, finished and handed over to fellow Africans who are equally doing as bad, if not worse than the British. /
/ If you present a donkey as a Nigerian President, US will work with it. USA doesn't give a rat's ass about who rules the Nigger area as long as US interests are protected. At what point in the world history do black people start believing that Whites care about their existence? The level of delusion in black community is astronomical. They will gladly run from one colonizer to another without recourse to self-actualization. From the West to China, from France to Russia and her Wagner Group, etc.,whoever did the psychological programming on black Africans is a genius.
Labdi69: I have noticed this more than once. Whenever i take a lady out to a fancy restaurant, she always looks for a way to talk down on the food and make it seem she’s been to better places.
This has happened more than once and with different ladies its not a cooncidence. Mind you, these are pricy restaurants.
For someone like me, even if the food is not good, i wont even say anything especially when im not paying.
/ That's God's way of telling you to stop wasting money going to fancy restaurants. /
/ It may seem that everyone in this shithole is taking credit for one nonsense or the other. In all, we are still an inconsequential third world country.
/ I still don't understand why countries still use US$ for transactions when it could be arranged by both parties using counterparty currency. Why not £, €, ¥ or other major currencies? It doesn't make any sense.
tonilite: Pls guys I'm considering embarking on a journey from PH to Lagos. How safe is it now to go by road? or should I just go by air? Pls any advice, I'm so confused.
ShortBiscuit: Why is it that a currency ($) that Nigeria doesn't own nor print keeps having such an insane influence on our local economy??
/
US positioned her fiat currency to choke everyone else. That's how they are quick to seize any country's funds. Wanna do wire transfer from Nigeria to India? The intermediary bank is in USA. Go figure!
Some nations are struggling to get off that economic grip but it has not been easy. UN, NATO, IMF, World Bank, you name it are under the strict control of USA. If US economy coughs, every other country goes into a tailspin.
There should be a law that mandates Nigerian pastors/prophets/Daddy G.O or whatever appendage they use, to carry liability insurance for prophecies. If they misyarn(as usual), insurance pays for damages.
Oduok: Sending kids to holiday lessons makes no sense.
Most of you will make your kids go to school till they become useless. You took them to school at age 3 and abandon them there. During long vacation you still send them to school. To do what?
Can't you spend time to bond with your kids? What exactly are they going to achieve in school during vacation? Vacation lesson only favour school owners, not you. Allow kids rest for God's sake.
If you should engage kids during long vacation then teach them skills. Enrol your kids in centres that they can learn practical computer usage, coding, programming, painting and decoration, catering, musical instruments. Let them learn martial art, how to shot guns, how to wrestle. Teach them something beyond pure academics.
If a school should organize long vacation class then it should gear towards extra curricula activities - debate, modelling, music concert, science fair, mini project. How would you call kids back to school during holiday to learn Math, English, Chemistry, Social studies, accounting, by same teachers that taught them during school period. What is the difference? If these teachers knew what to teach why didn't they do it during normal school session.
Education is beyond memorizing facts. Give your kids opportunity to develop and be better prepare for life.
/
Those are the kids that grow up to get distinction in all their classes but don't have common sense.
/ It is funny how the word "Democracy" is used to shortchange Africans. It is a matter of semantics and psychology. Is Nigeria running a democratic government? It is best described as civilian rule ( by all means necessary as exemplified by Tinubu).
Jazmine10: I guess she Bleep up to date the ex-convict in the first place to the point of marrying him. That there is/was the only fuckup as for your judgement, no need kicking a man who's already drowning. That in itself shows the wickedness of the society and folks like @AngelicBeing abi demon posing as angel of light.
/ Na as goat take stand Dem dey take price am. There are more than 1000 ways to die but she chose the public arena.
BrighterThanDay: Why is it that even when it is so clear from all indications that your daughter is married to an irresponsible man who is toxic. Nigerian parents will still say endure and stay there.
A lot of married young ladies are down with depression and even high BP because of marital stress. But they have to remain there. It's just so sad
/
How is it the parent's fault that an adult chose to remain a victim in a toxic relationship? At what point in life do Nigerians start assuming full responsibilities as adults?
Jazmine10: Whatever your judgement! Are humans so cold and heartless to forget the humanity of another human being whether she's a socialite or prostitute?
/
Contrary to what the basket of gullible believe, we live in a judgmental world else even law courts won't exist. You Bleep up in public, we judge your matter in public.
AngelicBeing: She married an ex- convict, a Guyman and the Guyman use sweet. guyman format + good sex + good Guyman stories to mesmerize the mugu woman, the mugu woman fell, bought him G_wagon + 100 million wedding + other money the Guyman has collected from the woman, it is called, mugu fall, Guyman wack, Guyman fall, police wack, next news jare
fineboynl: If any family is compelling you to spend the money you do not have unnecessary for a marriage ceremony. And they tell you marriage is just for once just borrow to spend it once and for all do not obliged because it's a scam.
There is nothing like once and for all in any marriage, and for a family who wanted the ceremony as they so desired yet not making the provision from their pocket but compelling you to do so that's it's just once and for all.
I can assure you that It won't be long before you start noticing it's nothing but a scam. Marriage is a continues spending with everything attached to it and if you are not prepared it means you are not ready yet.
You will soon start shouldering that family responsibilities when your wife putting pressure on you to help her family here and there..
There are some family that when they heard about marriage thry believe you have arrived. After all na who get money de do marriage. And the bigger you make that ceremony look the more the expectations and attention you will end up drawing to yourself.
/ Marriage used to be for love.
Trust Oyibo and their ingenuity, they turned it into an industry.
First, government turned it into a contract--easy to get in, difficult to get out.
Secondly, wedding became a commercial enterprise. From wedding gowns, engagement rings, weddings , reception, venue, etc. It is a gift that keeps giving
Third, the divorce industry boomed. They changed the law to incorporate "irreconcilable differences" and "no fault divorce". Divorce industry boomed. It is not out of order to see billboards for divorce lawyers in developed world soliciting for divorces, promising good returns and giving discounts. Some law courts in developed nations help petitioners offset the cost of divorce if they can't afford it.
Then the investment industry came in--huge wealth transfer with commissions. Alimony, child support, etc are pile of funds up for grabs.
Do you wanna get married 20 times? The government doesn't care. They will sign your certificate knowing that you will be gutted life during divorce.
Marriage is awesome for a man in Nigeria. But if you live in a developed world, better watch out. It ain't got nothing to do with love anymore. This is 2023/24.
blessingnenye: A lot of ladies are scared of 30. What's really wrong with 30? Why so dreadful with the age, after all it's just a number!!! Even with a lot of accomplishments, being 30 and single can be so pressurizing among out ladies, owing to the pressures from families and society to get married. Sometimes, this pressure sums up the reason why majority delve into an unfruitful marriage.
/ Any lady with an iota of common sense knows that marrying below 30 is the best decision considering that nature is at play. Geriatric pregnancy and consequent risks are real. It ain't got nothing to do with societal pressure. People should be able to look in the mirror beyond all the noise and tell themselves the truth. Facts don't care about feelings.
